Abstract

Nima Yooshij applied various techniques in order to describe diverse poetic subjects. This research deals with analysing the usage of these expressive techniques from two perspectives - poetic and structural.
Nima applied structural expressive techniques more often than poetic expressive techniques in order to describe various poetic subjects.
These techniques include adjectives, adverbs, adjective clauses, adjective predicate, descriptive sentences, and imaginative verbs.
The usage of adjectives and descriptive sentences is more common as opposed to other techniques. Among the poetic techniques such symbols as allegory, irony, metaphor and personification is in first position. The more extensive use of structural expressive techniques confirms that Nima’s poetry is closer to natural expression and rhythmic prose.

Key words: Description, poetic and structural expressive techniques, Nima Yooshij.
